GT944 0 Posted July 26, 2010 Hi all, Apologies in advance if this is a repost of something previously solved by others, but I did my best to seek out any solutions before posting this. I recently installed cameras in a new McDonald's building and am running a 16 camera, computer based system... or trying to anyways. I purchased a DiGiCam card from 123-cctv.com and installed the drivers and "server" software, connected the cameras to the card, and fired up my power supply. The issue I am having is that the software does not seem to boot up, but maxes my cpu load, and exists in the processes list on task manager. I previously used the same card, but older version of software with many other McDonald's stores without coming across this issue. I already tried to install the previous version of the software with the new card, but the older version of the software will not recognize the card. I knew this software & card were the cheap option - some Chinese thing that was translated poorly and has nothing as far as useful tech support, but it has worked so well until the new software showed up... Has anyone had any experience with the card I'm talking about? Any suggestions, short of replacing the card with something more reputable - which is what I'm very tempted to do, at this point - and starting over? I'll list my PC specs, and as much tech info as I can.
